Traded my Mark IV for a Splawn Quickrod 5yrs ago and havent had gas since. I have built everything around the QR and it has become 'my' tone now. What a great feeling :thumbsup:
 
other than my cabinet, I'm pretty happy!

Ibanez RGA121 or PRS SE Custom 22
TC Electronic Polytune
Digitech Bad Monkey
MXR Smart Gate
Mesa Boogie Mark IV
Homemade 2x12 with terrible speakers
Boss DD-3 and Boss GE-7 in the loop
 
Gibson SG --> non-modded '91 SLO (od channel only) --> Soldano 2x12" or 4x12" No effects, no channel switching...I'm not a tap dancer, I'm a guitar player. Ok, once in a great while a Wha pedal.

Because the SLO is too much amp for a lot of gigs I'll ever see, I had to find some suitable smaller alternatives...Astroverb 20W 1x12 (small), BFG modded 50W JCM800 1x12" (medium). All 3 amps scream AND clean up great when the volume is rolled down.

Ibanez SR3000 --> MarkBass SD1200 --> Schroeder 4x10
 
My basic rig has been a CAE 3+SE, a Soldano SM-100R and a WET reverb for a while now. The cabinet is a Splawn 4x12 with Eminence speakers (Governor and Man-o-War in an X I think). It sounds good with both my primary guitars (A GMW super-strat and a GMW tele) for both rock and country which covers both my gigs so I don't anticipate changing. I'm also pretty permanently attached to a few other effects - an OCD for fenderish medium gain and an Analogman Juicer for standard country compression.

What I do need is a new switching setup. I'm planning on a Rack Gizmo when they become available. Modulation and long delay are a little up in the air too.
 
I'm very happy w/ my rig once I get my new cab set up.

Ibanez RG 7string, Ibanez RG 6 string, PRS Paul Allender SE-----

Tremonti Wah---EB Volume Jr---Boss TU-2---Ibanez TS-9---MXR Zakk OD---Boss NS-2---(MXR Carbon Copy[FX Loop]--- Danelectro Cool Cat Chorus[FX Loop])

Peavey 5150 Script Head--- Avatar 4x12 (Old Cab)---Diezel 4x12(New Cab need to load it)

Either way I really dig the tone it's simple straight forward, and when needed brutal! May one day add something for clean tone, but right now its not needed :rock:
 
Im finally satisfied with my rig after years of GAS....
MARK V.....modern Metal/hard rock tones
Langner DCP-1/Boogie 50/50....Modified Marshall high gain 80's tones
78 JMP+Tubescreamer.......Classic crunch

The Langner preamp is the best amp Ive ever played thru....ended my search finally. It does feel weird not actually gassing for something though. Strange as that seems.

I am not satisfied with my setup. Want to add another guitar to my collection but I am very happy with the 3 guitars I have right now. I want to replace the amp with something else and upgrade the effects that I use.
 
I'm totally satisfied with my rig, besides one change-up that I am currently involved in. I'm replacing one of my three Suhr Moderns with another one that is on order right now....and it's only for a different preference in woods as well as a couple of other specs. I have NEVER been as satisfied with my rig as I am now. I've been through a lot of gear in my life, but I've never felt as "satisfied" as I do now. I love my Suhrs, Carvins, and even my new Rasmus (Suhr). Amp-wise, I'm not as near picky as some ppl. My Mesa Mark V and Peavey JSX work very well for what I need and I have absolutely NO desire to purchase any other amps out there. Six guitars, two amps, PC 2x12 Wave cab, and a TC Electronic Flashback, Corona Chorus, and a 535Q wah for FX....I'm done. G.A.S. is a thing of the past for me. I'm perfectly happy with what I have, and that's not gonna change.
 
I'm completely happy with my rig. Wouldn't change a thing and not going to change anything anytime soon.
 
I've had the same "core" rig for almost four years now. Les Paul into a H&K TriAmp. For effects I have bounced back and forth between the TC G-Major and ther Nova System. My other guitars are currently a P90 loaded Les Paul and a Tele. I am extremely happy with this setup. There's not a whole lot I can't cover at the moment.
 
Tried a bunch of stuff, spent a shit load of money, Thanks RT :lol: :LOL:..... back to the same rig I've owned for 5 years.

The Egnater MOD100 rig for the band, and my Axe-Fx 2 for practicing.

I think it's coming up on a year with my 5150 & Recto Cab and longer with my Ibanez RGA, I have absolutely no plans in my future to sell any of those things or my pedal board. Short of some family emergency, it won't happen. Other guitars might come and go, but this stuff stays :) The only thing that I've been looking for is a crappy little backup amp.

Too right brother, same story here to the T. I am happy with what I've got, nothing is going, but I desire MOAR GEAR, as it were.

Cabs: Splawn cab with 25w Greenbacks

Amps: Two channel Dual or Triple Rec, 100w JCM which I will modify myself, Orange Tiny Terror which I will mod and "Marshallize" to be louder and less fuzzy to take pedals better and use as a solid practice amp

Pedals: Maxon OD820, Strymon El Capistan, build and tweak a fuzz face.
 
I am completely happy with the gear I own. Recto's on recto cabs, a peavey ultra and a randall cab, I found another peavey ultra plus at a pawn shop for $200 and thinking of buying it to use it in a stereo rig. My Mesa Boogie rack is coneing along well, Mesa 50 cal and a recto preamp to a recto cab, simple and lots of tones covered by this setup. :thumbsup:

Now that's what's up. DIY mods are really fun/cool sounding, hopefully they're not too difficult.
 
you know what, now that i think about it theres one change i would make, i love all my guitars and amps and im happy with my uberkab but i wanna change the k-100 out of my splawn cab for something else, so i guess im 90% happy.
 
Had my Bog for about 1 1/2 years, glad I finally found my tone. Have had my Mesa Mk III for 16 years :yes: I'm with Eddie
